AVG antivirus hidden option

I discovered a hidden option in AVG which is not selected by default in the free version

select shell extensions
click settings
select the option "automatically heal infected files"

This helps in automatic healing of infected files after scanning

Nice find ..........
but is this a technology news !!!!

Man that was unchecked because AVG is not sure of its scan-list

Not all the files found by AVG r virus/malware n AVG sometime finds wrong files as virus

To avoid this ...its unselected by default

u should hav posted in tutorial section!! u r so old member then also u did such mistake??

Thanks for the trick
..

But it should have been in chitchat section.

Nice find.. but why is this in tech news..??

anyway.. thanks

I knew it..By doing this AVG deletes some important files :mrgreen:
